I'm happy to announce the third collection by Woodbridge Press!
The tentative title is 'Across the World', and we are looking for stories 5,000-10,000 words in length.
Much is the same way we have done it with Explorations, I have invited a group of authors to write stories for this. From our submissions on the Chrons, we will be realistically accepting 2-3 entries.
What we are looking for are fantasy stories about journeys, adventures, and quests. There is something special about those old fantasy books we all grew up reading, whether it was Frodo leaving the Shire to make his way through peril to Mordor, or Thomas Covenant walking the Land. I want to recapture that essence with a new take on it. So give me classic, grim-dark, magic systems, or epic, but just make sure that the journey is the heart of it.
I am very happy to announce that our very own @Teresa Edgerton will be editing the collection, and she will make the final call on which stories submitted will be included along side the invited authors.
Here is the current author listing, and as a huge fantasy fan, I am more than thrilled to have each of them included in this book.
Julia Knight
Adrian Tchaikovsky
John Gwynne
Steven Poore
Teresa Edgerton
Gail Z Martin
Juliet E McKenna
Jacob Cooper
Charlie Pulsipher
Anna Dickinson
Juliana Spink Mills
Douglas Hulick
Payment will be $50.00 US and a share of 40% of the net revenues on print and electronic. We are also exploring doing an audio version as well.
I know there are so many awesome authors here, and I really look forward to seeing what you all come up with!
Please email submissions to info@woodbridgepress.ca, and feel free to contact either Teresa or myself if you have any questions about the project.
